To Tortuguero National Park
Our adventure begins early this morning, leaving San Jose behind as we travel to Tortuguero National Park in northeast Costa Rica. Accessible only by boat or light aircraft, Tortuguero has a vast network of waterways, canals and swamps that are remarkably tranquil, unspoilt and devoid of noise pollution. On reaching the pier, we board a small motorboat for the journey to our lodge (up to 1hr 30min) , which is a short distance from the main lagoon. Please note the transfer from San José to Tortuguero is not private for Exodus clients.
Our afternoon is spent in Tortuguero village, where we can visit the Sea Turtle Museum (a donation will be requested at the entrance). Tortuguero is probably most famous as a nesting site for endangered green turtle, which can be seen arriving onto the beach to lay eggs from late July to October (as part of an optional excursion). Hawksbill, loggerhead and giant leatherback turtles also nest in this region, and during November to January, baby turtles hatch and make their way towards the ocean. Today’s travel time will be in the region of six hours including a stop for breakfast.
Accommodation: Evergreen Lodge (or similar)
Boat tour around Tortuguero waterways
This morning we board a small boat, enabling us to discover the extraordinary flora and fauna of Tortuguero as we pass serenely along the waterways. In the morning wildlife is usually at its most active and with the help of our expert guide we are likely to encounter monkeys, caiman, iguanas, butterflies and many of the 300-plus bird species recorded here. We’ll take a second boat trip this afternoon or you can relax at the lodge and enjoy the facilities.
Accommodation: Evergreen Lodge (or similar)
To Cahuita; relax on the Caribbean coast
We leave Tortuguero the same way we arrived, by taking a small boat to Siquirres pier. Our bus will be at the pier waiting to drive us to the Cahuita region on the Caribbean coast, where we check into our hotel. Caribbean culture pervades this part of Costa Rica and is reflected in the music, food and laid-back lifestyle. The white-sand beach here is fringed by tall palms, behind which is the dense, wet tropical forest of Cahuita National Park.
Accommodation: Ciudad Perdida (or similar)
Wildlife walk in Cahuita National Park
Cahuita National Park has 2,711 acres (1,097ha) of land and 600 acres (243ha) of coral reef, the largest reef system in Costa Rica. Today we visit the national park, taking a walk that follows the coastline through rainforest and past impressive Caribbean beaches. Although fairly small in size, there is plenty of diversity in the park. The rest of the afternoon is yours to explore the beach, join an optional snorkelling excursion (subject to local conditions) or simply relax.
Accommodation: Ciudad Perdida (or similar)
Free day in Cahuita
Today is yours to relax into the Caribbean pace of life and enjoy free time around Cahuita. It is possible to join an optional excursion to the indigenous communities of Kekoldi & Bri Bri Reserve, where you’ll learn about the properties and uses of native plants, plus the process of making artisanal chocolate. Chocolate is very important in Bri Bri culture and used for purification rituals, food and medicine. During the excursion, there is also the opportunity for a refreshing swim at a waterfall.
Accommodation: Ciudad Perdida (or similar)
To Turrialba Valley; free afternoon
Our next destination is Turrialba Valley, a rich agricultural region in the Central Highlands. The topography of this region is mountainous, with waterfalls, rivers and caves – the varied elevation supports a wide range of plants (including orchids, bromeliads, lichens and mosses) and animals (including anteaters, ocelots and tapirs). The afternoon is free for you to enjoy the extensive hotel grounds, tranquil surrounding area and the birdlife that frequents the valley.
Accommodation: Villa Florencia, Turrialtico or Guayabo Lodge (or similar)
Visit to CATIE research centre; to Savegre Valley Cloud Forest
After breakfast, we depart for CATIE (Centro Agronómico Tropical de Investigación y Enseñanza), an international institute for agricultural development and biological conservation. Our visit includes a guided walk in the Dr Jorge León Arguedas Botanical Garden, during which we will see and learn about the approximately 400 different species that are observed and interpreted here, as well as receive an explanation of myriad exotic fruits that are found at the facility.
After lunch, we continue to San Gerardo de Dota and Savegre Valley Cloud Forest. This is said to be one of the best places in Costa Rica to see the beautiful, colourful and notoriously shy resplendent quetzal and we have two nights here to discover the region. These endangered birds rely on the cloud forest for their habitat; the males are particularly striking with a green crest, red breast and tail feathers that can reach a metre in length. A good pair of binoculars will be helpful for quetzal spotting as these birds camouflage themselves well among the wet leaves. After lunch, we take a short walk into the cloud forest.
Accommodation: Savegre Hotel, Nature Reserve & Spa or Trogon Lodge (or similar)
Free day to discover walking trails in Savegre Valley
Today is free to relax and explore Savegre Valley. Bring your binoculars to spot some of the 170 bird species, trek through the tropical cloud forest or simply enjoy the incredible view from the lodge. Your leader will suggest walks for today so you can discover the tropical cloud forest and sub-Alpine vegetation of the area. Birds here include hummingbirds, woodpeckers tanagers and trogons, and if you are lucky tapirs and squirrel monkeys.
Accommodation: Savegre Hotel, Nature Reserve & Spa or Trogon Lodge (or similar)
To Sierpe; boat to Drake Bay on the Osa Peninsula
Early in the morning, our journey continues towards the small town of Sierpe, where we board a small motorboat to Drake Bay on the Osa Peninsula. Passing the huge mangrove swamps that line the Sierpe River, our boat crosses the ocean before arriving at Drake Bay. This region is very remote and with extremely limited road access, which means most supplies, visitors and locals, must arrive by boat. Getting here is part of the adventure. The bay is spectacular, with just a handful of lodges on the horizon and the rest thick verdant forest and rocky coves as far as the eye can see. Our next three nights will be spent at the Drake Bay Wilderness Resort, a family-run property close to the ‘town’ of Drake Bay and with ocean views from every corner.
Accommodation: Drake Bay Wilderness Resort (or similar)
Snorkelling near Caño Island and walk to secluded Cocalito Beach (December to August) OR walk the Trillo de la Danta (September to November)
December to August (drier months)
This morning, we board a small boat towards Caño Island. During this 45-minute boat ride, there may be opportunities to spot migrating whales or playful dolphins (orca are occasionally spotted here between December to April and humpbacks might be seen in July and August). Marine life is the biggest highlight of this area, with hawksbill and olive ridley turtles, manta rays and white-tipped reef sharks just some of the likely encounters on today’s snorkelling excursion. This area has been rated as having some of the best snorkelling in Costa Rica, with excellent water visibility and a huge marine diversity living in the protected reef.
On returning to Drake Bay, we enjoy lunch then embark on a 1mi (1.5km) walk to Cocalito Beach. Wildlife including iguanas, macaws and toucans are often spotted along the route, and elusive tapirs are also seen less frequently. There is time to rest on the golden sands and take in the secluded beauty of Cocalito before returning to the hotel.
September to November (wetter months)
Today we visit a community rural tourism project that has developed to protect the area’s flora and fauna, and provide an economic benefit to the local people. We start the day with a short boat ride to the village of Drake Bay then take a 30-minute transfer to Finca Paz y Flora, home to many bird species who are attracted by the resplendent gardens.
We walk on the Trillo de la Danta, or Tapir’s Trail, within a primary tropical forest. Keep an eye out for collared peccaries, agouti, monkeys and shy tapirs. Towards the end of the walk, we reach a scenic waterfall where it’s possible to cool off with a dip in the clear waters. We enjoy a traditional lunch served in banana leaves before returning to our hotel.
Accommodation: Drake Bay Wilderness Resort (or similar)
Boat trip to Corcovado National Park; discover the park on foot
When National Geographic describes an area as “the most biologically intense place on Earth,” it must be worthy of investigation. This morning, we board a small boat for a 30-minute journey to San Pedrillo Ranger Station, our entrance point to Corcovado National Park. This is undoubtedly the most secluded and tranquil region in Costa Rica. Protecting around one-third of the Osa Peninsula (some 164sqmi/425sqkm), Corcovado is the largest national park in Costa Rica and encompasses 13 major ecosystems across various elevations, with montane forest, cloud forest, fresh water and mangrove swamps among them.
Scientists have recorded half of all the species in Costa Rica on this peninsula alone. On today’s hike along the parks trails, we may see all four monkey species in Costa Rica (squirrel, howler, white-faced capuchin and spider), tamandua (anteaters), two- and three-toed sloths, peccary, tapirs (including the endangered Baird’s tapir) and many reptiles, insects and amphibians. Puma and jaguar also prowl this area, but are very difficult to see. With more than 500 tree species, the bird count stands at an impressive 365 and the park protects the largest population of scarlet macaws in the country, which can frequently be seen and heard flying overhead. In October, when the national park is closed, we typically visit El Camino de la Danta, a wildlife-rich trail home to white-faced monkeys, scarlet macaws, toucans and more.
Accommodation: Drake Bay Wilderness Resort (or similar)
Mangrove boat trip; to Sierpe; to San José
After an early breakfast, we board another boat and return to Sierpe town. On the way, our boat will take a short tour of the huge mangrove forest that lines the Sierpe River. Delving into the network of tributary rivers and streams offers a chance to learn more about the role of mangroves in the ecosystem and the numerous creatures that depend on them, including fish, crabs, birds, molluscs and shellfish. In Sierpe town, we transfer to our private minibus and commence our journey to San José.
Accommodation: Presidente Hotel or Park Inn or Delta by Marriott San José Aurola (or similar)
Visit the Irazu Volcano National Park and the Orosi Valley for a coffee tour
Today begins with a trip to the Irazu Volcano National Park in the Cartago province of Costa Rica, located within the Central Mountain Range around a 90-minute journey from San José. Passing different vegetation, we’ll drive towards the summit and then follow a path that leads to a wonderful view across the huge crater. Irazu is one of the most active volcanoes in Costa Rica, though it has recently entered a dormant phase – a relief to the farmers and property owners who make their living on the fertile slopes. On a clear day, both the Caribbean and Pacific coastlines can be seen from the summit. Remember to bring a jacket as it can be windy and cold at the viewpoint of this elevation (Irazu summit is 11,260ft/3,432m high).
Following this we continue to the city of Cartago, home to a spectacular domed basilica, and the Orosi Valley, an area of natural beauty. After lunch in one of the many traditional restaurants, we join the Orosi Coffee tour to learn about the ancient techniques used to produce some of the best coffee in the world. This involves understanding the cultivation, harvesting and roasting of coffee beans, before you have a chance to savour the end product yourself. Afterwards, we return to San Jose for our last night of the holiday.
Accommodation: Presidente Hotel or Park Inn or Delta by Marriott San José Aurola (or similar)

Post-trip Extensions
Punta Leona Beach Club & Nature Resort
Extend your adventure with post-tour nights at Punta Leona, which is equal measures beach retreat and nature resort. When it comes to relaxing, there are two white-sand beaches (which are surprisingly hard to find in Costa Rica), swimming pools and a natural spa, plus plenty of sports options, including tennis, volleyball and mini golf. There’s also a great choice of dining options, from a buffet serving local and international dishes, to a Japanese-Latin American sushi restaurant and a beach bar at Playa Blanca.
When you’re ready to explore the natural world, there are monkeys roaming the grounds, sloths lazing in the trees, a butterfly garden, and free guided walks around the 40 acre (15ha) nature reserve, home to toucans, flycatchers, hummingbirds and plenty of amphibians and reptiles.
The resort itself is well secluded, hidden at the end of a 3mi (5km) road through the forest, while the closest town (Jacó) is about a 30-minute drive away. Regular shuttles take you on the 10 to 15-minute ride from your bungalow to the beaches.
Book with us and you’ll receive a private transfer at the end of your tour to Punta Leona, plus another private transfer to San José Airport, which is just 1hr 30min away. How long you stay is up to you. Just speak to your sales representative to book.
Hotels and jungle-wrapped lodges
On this Costa Rican adventure, we spend 14 nights in hotels and lodges. Make sure to bring your swimwear, as most have swimming pools. The normal accommodations used on this trip are on the day-to-day itinerary; however, below are a couple of the notable places we stay.
Tortuguero: Evergreen Lodge (nights 2-3)
Within Tortuguero National Park, this 66-room resort provides an away-from-it-all experience within the jungle. There’s a turtle-shaped swimming pool (this is green turtle country after all) and dining rooms where you can tuck into Caribbean cuisine with views of the tranquil neighbouring waterway. Residents you might spot include sloths, toucans and iguanas, and we stay in rustic wooden bungalows with comfortable beds and ceiling fans.
Savegre: Savegre Hotel & Spa or Trogon Lodge (nights 8-9)
In the middle of a natural forest reserve, Savegre Hotel & Spa (above) is the ideal place to immerse in nature. It has plant-filled gardens, multiple walking trails, and a lookout point with views over forested slopes. We sleep in wooden lodges, while Las Bromelias restaurant serves international and local cuisines (made with seasonal, indigenous produce) and Los Robles, a bar-lounge, serves cocktails and Savegre coffee. On some departures, we stay at the 24-room Trogon Lodge instead. It’s equally idyllic, with a farm-to-table restaurant, a river-view bar and two nature trails.
Drake Bay: Drake Bay Wilderness Resort (nights 10-12)
When Herbert and Marleny founded this resort in 1985, they were among the first in the area – electricity would take 20 years to fully arrive here. They chose an excellent location. Right by the ocean, there’s plenty of spots to admire the bay, while fellow residents include white-faced monkeys, anteaters and even dolphins. Other highlights include a restaurant serving Costa Rican-American dishes, a saltwater swimming pool, and a bar with bay views.
Worth knowing
- Some of the properties have ceiling fans rather than air conditioning.
- One or several of the named properties might be substituted for similar alternatives to secure hotel availability. Please discuss with your customer operations executive if you require more details regarding your specific departure date.

It’s always been a dream of mine to see Toucans in the wild and towards the end of the trip I lost count of how many we spotted.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Our leader Monica was amazing her wildlife knowledge was second to none.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Make sure you have a good quality rain jacket and a good pair of binoculars!
Amazing wildlife
If you want to see a wide range of animals in their natural habitat, this is the trip for you. We selected the coastal secrets trip due to the variety of national parks, climate, scenery and type of animal. This didn’t disappoint. We saw over 130 different types of birds, 3 types of monkey, a range of reptiles and swam with a basking shark and a turtle whilst on the Osa Peninsular. The trip has a lot of variety, travelling by boat to see the wildlife in Tortugerro, walking in the NP in Cahuita, emersed in beautiful gardens in Savegre and exploring the wild Osa Peninsula.
Jonanthan was a wonderful guide. His knowledge and understanding about the wildlife and his country was outstanding.
Most Inspirational Moment
There were so many on this trip... Seeing our first sloth, swimming with turtles and sharks, watching monkeys swing through the forest at speed, seeing the Quetzal bird, being emersed in a garden full of hummingbirds, seeing reptiles in their natural habitat, spending the day with the Bri Bri community.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Amazing. His enthusiasm was infectious. His knowledge about every animal we saw was second to none. He was extremely professional and nothing was too much trouble. He had excellent communication skills and a good sense of humour.
Advice for Potential Travellers
If you love wildlife sign up now for this trip. The food and accommodation weren't 5* so go with appropriate expectations. The wildlife however is 5*. Travel with clothes for every eventuality. We had rain and we also had hot sunny days. Be prepared for early starts to see the best of the wildlife. It was worth it. We added an extension to Tamarindo. This was very relaxing at the end of a busy trip.
Simply amazing
A fantastic trip with one highlight after another. Wonderful sights and sounds and a huge variety of scenery. Excellent hotel accommodation and food choices. Excellent guide Alejandro and driver Randall who went the extra mile throughout to ensure we had the best time. A lot of hours spent travelling and early mornings but so worth it. I cannot recommend this trip highly enough. I absolutely loved Costa Rica!
Most Inspirational Moment
Tapir on the beach, quetzal on the tree near our hotel, turtles when snorkelling, sunset and swim on the pacific coast….. too many!!

Most Inspirational Moment
Seeing two male sloths fighting in the trees
Thoughts on Group Leader
Excellent
Advice for Potential Travellers
I was worried about mosquitoes but there were hardly any (Feb/March) - we stopped using bug spray. Bring old leggings or shorts to protect backs of legs from sun when snorkeling - one of our party got painfully burnt. Or at least bring reef-safe sunscreen.
As per the description
A fantastic trip which was organised, managed and surpassed expectations
Most Inspirational Moment

Coastal secrets galore
Amazing country packed with beautiful birds , wildlife, scenery and friendly people. Hot and humid in February a bit of rain but not cold unless at altitude.
Most Inspirational Moment
Snorkelling at Drake Bay
Thoughts on Group Leader
Our group leader was Ana and she went out of her way to give us a great holiday experience. Not everybody in our group had the same opinion and were challenging at times.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Bring lots of bug spray, an umbrella for short showers when poncho would be too hot. Water shoes. Rash vest for snorkelling in for Drake Bay. Take a day bag - note you will want to use your day bag when your suitcase and hand luggage is in transit between hotels.
An amazing introduction to a wonderful country
This holiday was hard work, busy busy, busy, but goodness me it was worth the 6 a.m. starts and hours in the bus to see so much of a country that could justly claim to be a little bit of paradise on earth.
Most Inspirational Moment
When a hawksbill turtle surfaced an arm's length away from me.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Adriana
Advice for Potential Travellers
Take a universal sink plug if you plan to do your own laundry (although the Drake Bay Wilderness hotel offered free laundry service). Good hiking shoes are essential but you don't really need boots. A lightweight, breathable waterproof is essential.
Great holiday
Loved every minute of this trip. The animals, birds, insects and scenery are amazing.
Most Inspirational Moment
Getting up early to see the quetzals.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Pablo was the best. His attention to detail was spot on. He was very caring and always happy to go the extra mile for us. Ronald, our driver deserves a mention too - very skilful.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Don’t forget your binoculars. It’s useful to have an umbrella. Take lots of bug spray and anti-itch cream.
Pura Vida!
This trip is quite simply outstanding. The wildlife, the food, the culture – basically the whole experience – is just amazing and I cannot talk highly enough about it. Travelling from the Caribbean to the Pacific and back inland again, the itinerary finds a very good balance between travel days and hotel stays, allowing regular opportunities to stay 2/3 nights in one place. The ability to spot wildlife is phenomenal – in fact if Exodus were to offer a free refund if you don’t see a sloth, they would have a sure bet!. Other wildlife experiences were also regular (quetzals, monkeys, tamanduas, birdlife, turtles hatching, snorkeling with turtles, sharks, tropical fish, the list is endless. Finally, the quality of the food caught us by surprise. An absolute delight for every meal and the fruit is SOOOOO fresh!
Most Inspirational Moment
the moment we found the quetzal. an incredible (and rare) bird which also brought home to us just how dedicated the tour leader was to giving us the best experience possible. his patience, passion, and knowledge of habitat finally paying dividends. Swimming with a hawksbill turtle is also an experience I will treasure for a long time!
Thoughts on Group Leader
Jorge could not have been better. Passionate about his Country, the Culture, the wildlife, the sustainability, he went out of his way to ensure the group had the best experience possible.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Take your own travel towels. not needed in the hotel/lodge pools but useful for sea swimming. Patience is required to see the wildlife. It is all there and you need to trust the guide to find it, but it can sometimes take a while. That said, you WILL see lots of wildlife and the experience will be amazing.
